Analyze Print Ad
1. Headline = It'll blow your mind away.
2. Slogan = It just tastes better.
3. Visual Attractive = A woman who open her mouth and also a super big burger that bigger than the woman's mouth.
4. I think the overall lay-out is creative because it makes the reader think that BK Super 7 inches is a very big burger that can make you full. Moreover, it persuades us to buy Burger King because of its slogan 'it just tastes better'

Storytellers Magazine
Making a magazine is an interesting thing that I have ever done in my life. My distribution jobs were making the cover of magazine and also collecting some photos. I really enjoyed spending my time to draw the picture, because I needed to dig my creativity for making this kind of drawing. The style of the drawing is doodle style and I think all of us can learn it easily. However, I also encountered some difficult parts for collecting the photos because all of the members have different theme of story, so I had to see my old albums or Ellen's album (member who is responsible for photos too). Moreover, I also had some different idea about something that another member tried to design the background with her own way, but I realized that all of us have their own style for making a design, so I just trying to appreciate it. In the end, we still can cooperate with each other and I can feel that this assignment can make us recognize and understand other people's characteristic and also their preferences. I really excited to do this kind of assignment because we have to push our creativity. In my opinion, making a magazine also a kind of creating an art, mass media art!

Convenience in the Future
On this decade I can do whatever I want easily. Everyday I go to work with my dazzling red flying car which has a big touch screen monitor providing an electronic map and I will draw the line from my house to the office. While the car is driving, I would enjoy my tasty tuna sandwich with a cup of hot chocolate soda milk that I took from food and beverage online box at home. When I finished my breakfast, I will open the 4D newspaper on the monitor to see what is happening today. Life is like a river rafting, once you enjoy handling the raft and passing through the obstacle, you will find the time is quickly evaporate. I just remember twenty years ago when I had to prepare my own breakfast and read an old-fashioned newspaper. Really, that time had been an old stuff that must to be recycled anyway. Life in this way makes my day perfect, I could feel the clouds were dancing, following my great mood. Not just transportation, but a way we to communicate is changing too. When I missed my mother, I can call them with my invisible hand phone that can show her hologram face on the air and can hear her voice very clear even from a very far place. I also can smell her rose fragrant perfume from the hologram. I think all of the inventors are using the technology in a clever way to satisfy us. I don’t need to do anything while a computer and robot are around me. I realize I will be lazy though, but who cares? Everybody is enjoying these conveniences by the way.

Happiness from the Great Distance
Last summer vacation I came back to Indonesia for holiday. I didn't expect that Mpok Nyai came to visit us. Mpok is a term that I use to call the older woman in Betawi's dialect (dialect which is used in Jakarta). Mpok Nyai was our maid when my mother was a teenager. Even though she is already retired, she visited us and told her story life with her grandchildren. My mother said that even she was a maid, my mother consider her as a part of our family.
One week before I back to Taiwan, she came to see me. I was very happy because she was a nice person with a great personality. Most people would be happy and laugh listening to her jokes. However, besides her friendly character, she had an unforgettable story. One day when she was giving birth to her baby, she couldn't pay for the hospital cost. Unfortunately, she had to leave her baby boy in the hospital and must find some money for the fee in a week. However she hadn't had the money and when she came back about one week later, the baby had been taken away. She was very upset and hope that the baby would be in the good hands.
About 17 years later, the boy came back! Amazingly, he was adopted by a Dutch family. So, what actually happened in the hospital was, there were a Dutch couple who came for adopting a child and took Mpok Nyai child as theirs. After he had grown up, his Dutch parents gave a permission to him to find his real mother, Mpok Nyai in Indonesia. When they finally met each other, both of them were crying happily. The name of her son is Siswoyo. After meeting each other, Siswoyo finally came back to Netherlands and had his own life there.
This photo was taken during my summer holiday in Indonesia. That time, Mpok Nyai was ironing our clothes while I saw her son's facebook. Siswoyo had a newborn baby girl! I knew it because he posted it. Then, I told Mpok Nyai and she was really excited to know her grandchildren. When I showed the photos, she was really happy and asked me to print the photo, so that she could bring it home and told her relatives that she had grandchildren. I took this photo because I wanted to show it to Siswoyo on facebook that Mpok Nyai was proud to be a grandmother. This photo is really meaningful for me because I could help both of them to know that even the distance was separating them, but Siswoyo could share the happiness and joyfulness to Mpok Nyai with the photo of his family. Moreover, Siswoyo must be very touched to see it because his mother knew that he is a father now. In the end, I am happy to be the mediator for Siswoyo and Mpok Nyai, to see the beautiful life that even mother and son were separated, Mpok Nyai still loves him and prays for his son. Mpok Nyai said to me that she hoped she could go to Netherlands someday to see Siswoyo.
